An ’80s War Movie Starring Laurence Olivier Lost Its Studio Over $40 Million

In the 1970s Sun Myung Moon, tax-cheat founder From the clowns of the association (which had become a global perforation in its team hay and doctrine that Jesus Christ had personally commanded the Messiah to continue the Messiah’s good work), was enthusiastic about getting into the film business. At that time, the films were still the most dynamic way of spreading propaganda, which is mainly what the moon was with “Inchon”. Apparently, a large battle spit, which focused on Inchon’s central battle, was truly an attempt to burn General Douglas MacArthur’s spoiled reputation.

The film stopped that it cost an absolute wild 1981 $ 46 million, but at least it was left in the hands of proven professionals such as Direffer Terence Young (Who helps “Dr. No” “From Russia with love” and “Thunderball”) and Oscar nominee Bruce Surtees. Unfortunately, the production was dismissed by delays and SNAFUS (such as the entire real battleship, which turned in the wrong direction, which led to one of the most demoralizing and expensive “back one” reset of all time), as well as spruce that had no movie experience.

The terrible Washington DC premiere in 1981, the film was shelved until September 1982, when it met with hostile reviews. Critics were shocked by the film’s tireless inability, which looked like a 140-minute premiere, cut into a 105-minute theater release, had been directed by someone who did not understand the basic law of the basic films. They were also career successes, translated by Jacqueline Bisset, Ben Gazarra, Toshiro Mifune and Richard Roundree.

If the reviewers were inclined to be a charity “Inchon”, they saved a friendly word for Olivier, whose description of the loud general Macarthur was clearly more nuanced than Gregory Peck’s rigid work of 1977 “MacArthur”. Still, people were terrified that he had wasted his time and ability in the world -class Stinker (one that gross $ 5.2 million at home). Olivier was preparing for such objections and explained his decision in the interview at the time of the film. Master Thespian:

“People ask me why I play in this picture. The answer is simple. Money, my dear boy. I’m like a vintage -wine. You have to drink me quickly before turning sour sour. I’m almost used now and I can feel the rest of the time. That’s why I have nothing to leave my family but the money I can earn.

Olivier was paid a million dollars for a six -week job “Inchon”. The Noël Pellar would have been mocked, but he had been incredibly dead in 1982.
